Chapter 1296: Can I make room for you?
The day after Li Ye attended the wedding, shocking news from the north quickly spread throughout the world.
"Li Ye, please read today's newspaper."
Lu Zhizhang rushed into Li Ye's office holding a newspaper, and then saw a newspaper on Li Ye's desk. Li Ye was staring out the window with a lonely look on his face.
Just yesterday, Gorbachev in the north suddenly resigned and Soviet Russia was ordered to dissolve.
And on the same day, Ermao declared independence and became a sovereign state.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the Soviet Union, which dominated the world for fifty years, is now in name only.
But ordinary people are ignorant and even cheer and celebrate that everyone is about to become a part of the free world.
Even among flower growers thousands of miles away, many people feel that Gorbachev’s move may make Soviet Union “great again” in another form.
However, Lu Zhizhang can see further than ordinary people.
"Li Ye, you also saw the newspaper, right? Oh, how could Gorbachev be so careless?"
"He's not sloppy, he's a sloppy person."
Li Ye, who was in a daze, slowly turned around and said in a low voice: "Gorbachev started reforms after taking office, but there was no effect, so he got anxious."
"But since the Soviet Union has been able to dominate Eastern Europe for fifty years, it must have its merits. We cannot tear it down and start all over again. We can only gradually eliminate the unreasonable parts and retain our own foundation and the basis of the country."
“.”
Lu Zhizhang was stunned for a moment, then whispered: "Li Ye, I know you can see further than me, do you think we will..."
"No."
Li Ye said decisively: "Our most difficult stage has passed, and we will definitely not follow in their footsteps."
"That's good, that's good"
Lu Zhizhang seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and as usual, he took out Li Ye's tea leaves and started making tea.
Li Ye's tea is sold in bulk and packed in an inconspicuous canning bottle, but the taste is simply amazing.
"Don't drink that, here is this year's new tea."
Li Ye took out another exquisite little jar and threw it to Lu Zhizhang.
Lu Zhizhang took it and looked at it, then smiled and said, "This is a high-end product that costs several hundred yuan per pound, right? Wouldn't you feel bad if I drank it?"
"Tsk~"
Li Ye smiled indifferently: "It's just a difference in packaging. They are all the same tea leaves. How can there be such a big difference?"
Lu Zhizhang nodded and suddenly asked, "Li Ye, what is the difference between state-owned enterprises and private enterprises?"
Li Ye glanced at Lu Zhizhang and said with a smile: "Old Lu, you are still worried. Private enterprises are important, but state-owned enterprises are more important."
"Oh~"
Only then did Lu Zhizhang feel completely relieved.
He knew that Li Ye had reliable sources of information, so what Li Ye said was so certain, which meant that he was not affected.
After all, the first branch factory is a state-owned enterprise. If it is privatized like Su E, the factory director Lu Zhizhang will be the first to bear the brunt.
People nowadays underestimate the vigilance and determination of the authorities towards state-owned enterprises, because these are also the foundation of a country.
For example, in the 1980s and 1990s, the relationship between the mainland and the Middle Eastern ants was good, but why did it gradually change?
Because in the 1980s and 1990s, all of Xiaoyi's companies were state-owned enterprises, even the farms were owned by the state, and many citizens immigrated from Suzhou and Goose, which was very similar to the situation in the mainland.
But after the 1990s, these enterprises began to be sold and privatized, and then gradually changed.
There is an essential difference between private enterprises and state-owned enterprises, because private enterprises are profit-oriented, while state-owned enterprises are based on national strategies.
Apart from anything else, the fact that the mainland is leading the world in rare earth industry after decades is due to its obedience to national strategies, decades of persistent "low-profit operation" or even "loss-making operation", which has squeezed out its peers around the world.
It could be sold for a million, but I only sell it for a dime. Do you think this is something a private company can do?
"Ding-ling-ling~"
Lu Zhizhang had just made some new tea when the phone on Li Ye's desk rang.
After Li Ye picked up the phone, he found out it was the security guard calling.
"Hello, Director Li, a comrade named He Dazhuang came to visit you. He said he is your classmate."
Li Ye asked in surprise: "Who? He Dazhuang?"
The guard said quickly, "It's He Da Zhuang, He as in congratulations on the New Year, Da as in big ship, Zhuang as in warrior who will never come back."
"Oh, that's indeed my classmate. I'll come and pick him up!"
Li Ye put down the phone and went to the gate to pick someone up.
As he walked, he wondered why He Dazhuang came to visit him without even saying hello?
After Li Ye met He Dazhuang, the other party was still so enthusiastic. He looked around and talked nonstop as he walked.
"Wow, Li Ye, your unit is really like that! It's harder to get into than a military unit."
"Hey, we are a joint venture company, and the requirements for foreign investment are relatively high."
"Really? I heard your company is very profitable! Why does this office building look a bit shabby?"
“The meat of the bun is not in the folds, and the office building does not generate any benefits.”
"Tsk, your idea is great. Unlike my unit, they first build the gate and then the building when they have money."
The two men talked as they walked, and by the time they arrived at Li Ye's office, He Dazhuang was sweating.
It was August and he was fat, so it was no wonder he was sweating.
Li Ye made him a pot of tea, then asked, "What's the matter? Are you coming to our company to learn some experience?"
He Dazhuang shook his head and said, "No, I don't come to you for no reason, but I come to you to ask for help."
Li Ye's face remained expressionless, but he remembered Chen Xiaoling's instructions in his heart.
"You beg me?"
Li Ye was surprised and said, "We are at the same level. You are far away from the emperor, and even if you stomp your feet, it will shake three times. I can throw a brick and kill eight deputy directors. How can you beg me?"
"Oh, I really have no choice!"
He Dazhuang said with a bitter face: "I had a frank talk with Zhen Rongrong yesterday. She said that we are separated from each other and there is no way for us to be in love. So after thinking about it, I can only come to you to ask for your acceptance."
"I'll take you in? You want to be transferred to our unit?"
"Yes! As long as I come to Beijing, Rongrong will be able to date me. I have asked, and your unit has talent introduction standards. It is open to junior college and undergraduate students after the 1977 college entrance examination. I fully meet the standards."
Li Ye was really speechless.
As soon as He Dazhuang mentioned the requirements for himself just now, he guessed something, so he said, "We are at the same level."
But when He Dazhuang really said this, Li Ye still couldn't understand or accept it.
Let alone Li Ye, who is only a deputy director, how can we transfer another deputy director from Qing Province thousands of kilometers away? Even if we can transfer him, how can we arrange it for you?
Are you going to give me my position as deputy factory director? What do you mean? I am making room for you?
Also, what does "As long as you come to Beijing, Rongrong will be able to date me" mean? Did you call her Rongrong too?
